They are looking for dirt, right now. If they can find one piece of dirt, on any Republican in Wisconsin, or on even one single TEA Party member, the media will whip it up into a blanket indictment of the entire movement.
This from the people who scream at our side that we're too quick to "stereotype," that we're too eager to "generalize," to "paint with a broad brush."
If they can't find any dirt on anyone in their target zone, they'll infiltrate a shill, a false-front person, and manufacture a scandal out of whole cloth.
This is happening right now, I am certain. If Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann and the other brains behind the TEA Party and Republican insurgence have any sense, they'll be putting their heads together to come up with ways to counteract the wave of filth that's going to be unleashed by the Left in the coming weeks.
The Tolerant, Civil Left.
The only way to combat it is to refuse to play their game. Like Christie when they said he should have come back for the snowstorm and he basically said SCREW YOU, I’m not going to cut my child’s visit to disneyland short to please the corrupt, vile midstream media when I couldn’t get back if I wanted to, and there is no reason to do so other than a photo op.” You have to be almost aggressive with them. Americans are so sick of namby-pamby that they’ll back you. That’s another domino I hope to see fall — the gonads to stand up and say FU!
